lanterns are worse then useless,

virate Of District Commissioners
take different view, and among
other municipal regulations just

bicyclers to carry and use both
bells and lanterns. This regnla-

No Anarchists For Them.

WASHINGTON, October 2O.-An
unusual scene occurred at the Met
ropolitan Methodist Episcopal
church last night, when Rev. John
P. Newman, in lecture on Inf
deity" referred in severest terms
to the anarchists, "Could any
American Citizen" he said, "ten
years ago have imagined the circu-
lation of petition to pardon those
whose hands are red with the blood
of the defenders of the public
peace and safety? What is back of
this anarehy-this daredevil move
ment on the part of those Williams
who ought to have been hung long
ago?' At this point many of the
audience rose to their feet, clapped
their hands and with loud denon-
STATIONS announced their approval
of their minister's words.

A second Spring.

Within the past few weeks a Sec
ond Spring has appeared about
Carson. Trees which lost their
leaves in the-colu snap began to put
forth new buds when the present
spell of warm weather came, and
here and there small leaf of pale
green could be discerned. This
curious state of affairs was probably
never before witnessed in Nevada.
How this will affect the trees next
Spring remains to be seen.

Evidence Wanted.

The APPEAL has received two
communications from citizens OF
Carson, asking why the Grand Jury
do not further investigate the cases
of tampering with children. alluded
to in these columns. The Grand
Jury are anxious to get evidence in
these cases, and will DO all in its
power, assisted by the District At
torney, to bring this class of Of
tenders to justice. The Jury will
be in existence some weeks, ami
any citizen who can throw any
light on these matters will be given
hearing before the Jury. There are
several parties in this city, of whose
guilt there can be no reasonable
doubt, but the difficulty of securing
evidence which would Warrant a
conviction before trial jury Is very
great, and men who have a knowl-
edge of the facts are loathe to come
forward. The Appeal is informed
that witnesses who might give val
liable testimony in these matters
have been struggled out of town
since the Grand Jury were in ses-
sion.
